a loose bolt of the ‘‘V’’ shape airbrake 

bellcrank, named hereafter intermediate 

control lever. The Left Hand (LH) wing lever 

also presented, to a lesser extent, a loose bolt. 

This AD requires inspection of the LH and 

RH wing airbrake intermediate control levers 

for loose attaching bolts and subsequent 

repetitive inspections and corrective actions, 

as necessary. As a terminating action, 

replacement of the bolts and their associated 

washers is required. 

These actions are intended to address the 

identified unsafe condition so as to prevent 

loss of the airbrake control system which 

could result in an inadvertent forced landing 

with consequent sailplane damage and/or 

passenger injury. 

Actions and Compliance 

(f) Unless already done, do the following 

actions. 

(1) Within 10 days after February 1, 2008 

(the effective date of this AD), inspect the 

left-hand (LH) and the right-hand (RH) wing 

airbrake intermediate control levers for loose 

attaching bolts following Allstar PZL Glider 

Sp. z o. o. Service Bulletin No. BE–059/SZD–

50–3/2007 ‘‘PUCHACZ,’’ dated October 15, 

2007. 

(2) Before further flight after the inspection 

required in paragraph (f)(1) of this AD if any 

loose bolt is found, on both wings replace the 

split helical spring lock washers with tab 

washers and replace the M8x34 bolts with 

M8x32 bolts following Allstar PZL Glider Sp. 

z o. o. Service Bulletin No. BE–059/SZD–50–

3/2007 ‘‘PUCHACZ,’’ dated October 15, 2007. 

(3) No further action is required at this 

time if no loose bolts were found during the 

inspection required in paragraph (f)(1) of this 

AD. 

FAA AD Differences 

Note: This AD differs from the MCAI and/ 

or service information as follows: 

(1) The MCAI and the service information 

require repetitive inspections if no loose 

bolts are found during the initial required 

inspection until the next 1,000-hour time-inservice (TIS) overhaul after the effective date 

of the AD, at which time replacing the split 

helical spring lock washers with tab washers 

and replacing the M8x34 bolts with M8x32 

bolts is required. 

(2) This AD is considered an interim action 

because we are not including a repetitive 

inspection requirement in this AD. The 

Administrative Procedure Act does not 

permit the FAA to ‘‘bootstrap’’ a long-term 

requirement into an urgent safety of flight 

action where the rule becomes effective at the 

same time the public has the opportunity to 

comment. The short-term action and the 

long-term action are analyzed separately for 

justification to bypass prior public notice. 

(3) After issuing this AD, we may initiate 

further AD action (notice of proposed 

rulemaking followed by a final rule) to 

require the inspection to be repetitive and to 

require a terminating action. Credit will be 

given in any subsequent action for the initial 

inspection done under this AD. 

Other FAA AD Provisions 

(g) The following provisions also apply to 

this AD: 

(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance 

(AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Office, 

FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs 

for this AD, if requested using the procedures 

found in 14 CFR 39.19. Send information to

409. Before using any approved AMOC on 

any glider to which the AMOC applies, notify 

your appropriate principal inspector (PI) in 

the FAA Flight Standards District Office 

(FSDO), or lacking a PI, your local FSDO. 

(2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement 

in this AD to obtain corrective actions from 

a manufacturer or other source, use these 

actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective 

actions are considered FAA-approved if they 

are approved by the State of Design Authority 

(or their delegated agent). You are required 

to assure the product is airworthy before it 

is returned to service. 

(3) Reporting Requirements: For any 

reporting requirement in this AD, under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) has

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

The Direct Final Rule Procedure 

The FAA anticipates that this 

regulation will not result in adverse or 


yshivers on PROD1PC62 with RULES
3626 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 14 / Tuesday, January 22, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 

negative comments, and, therefore, 

issues it as a direct final rule. Unless a 

written adverse or negative comment or 

a written notice of intent to submit an 

adverse or negative comment is received 

within the comment period, the 

regulation will become effective on the 

date specified above. After the close of 

the comment period, the FAA will 

publish a document in the Federal 

Register indicating that no adverse or 

negative comments were received and 

confirming the effective date of the rule. 

If the FAA receives, within the 

comment period, an adverse or negative 

comment, or written comment notice of 

intent to submit such a comment, a 

document withdrawing the direct final 

rule will be published in the Federal 

Register, and a notice of proposed 

rulemaking may be published with a 

new comment period. 

Comments Invited 

Although this action is in the form of 

a direct final rule, and was not preceded 

by a notice of proposed rulemaking, 

interested persons are invited to 

comment on this rule by submitting 

such written data, views, or arguments 

as they may desire. An electronic copy 

of this document may be downloaded 

from http://www.regulations.gov. 

Communications should identify both 

docket numbers and be submitted in 

triplicate to the address specified under 

the caption ADDRESSES above or through 

the Web site. All communications 

received on or before the closing date 

for comments will be considered, and 

this rule may be amended or withdrawn 

in light of the comments received. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 establishes 

Class E5 airspace at Eagle Pass, TX 

providing the airspace required to 

support the new RNAV (GPS) RWY 13/ 

31 approach developed for IFR landings 

at Maverick County Memorial 

International Airport. Controlled 

airspace extending upward from 700 

feet above the surface is required to 

encompass all SIAPs and for the safety 

of IFR operations at Maverick County 

Memorial International Airport. 

Designations for Class E5 airspace areas 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface of the earth are published in 

the FAA Order 7400.9R, signed August 

15, 2007 and effective September 15, 

2007, which is incorporated by 

reference in 14 CFR 71.1. Class E5 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in the 

Order. 

Agency Findings 

The regulations adopted herein will 

not have substantial direct effects on the 

States, on the relationship between the 

national government and the States, or 

on the distribution of power and 

responsibilities among various levels of 

government. Therefore, it is determined 

that this final rule does not have 

federalism implication under Executive 

Order 13132. 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore, (1) is not a 

‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under 

Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a 

‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

Regulatory Evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal since this is a 

routine matter that will only affect air 

traffic procedures and air navigation, it 

is certified that this rule, when 

promulgated, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 

The FAA’s authority to issue rules 

regarding aviation safety is found in 

Title 49, of the United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes the 

authority of the FAA Administrator. 

Subtitle VII, Aviation Programs, 

describes in more detail the scope of the 

agency’s authority. 

This rulemaking is promulgated 

under the authority described in subtitle 

VII, Part A, subpart I, section 40103. 

Under that section, the FAA is charged 

with prescribing regulations to assign 

the use of airspace necessary to ensure 

the safety of aircraft and the efficient 

use of airspace. This regulation is 

within the scope of that authority as it 

establishes Class E5 airspace near Eagle 

Pass, TX.
